Several communications have ap
peared of ly t te in the Elmira Adver
tiser,-purpsirting to hove been writ
ten by citizens residing in different
localities in this county, in favor . I pf
HERDIC'S new eounty. We can scarce
ly believe that the editors of the Ad•
vertiser are ignorant of the fact that
these articles are either written or
instigated by !Mr. iir.nrac's hired
lobbyist, 11. N. WILLIAMS, E5q.1.,44
Canton, and the Advertiser belittles
itself in giving credit and respecta
bility to a, scheme calculated to do
great injui r itice to the pOple to be
affected by it. It is alleged in the
articles referred to, that the opposi-
tion to the measure eminates from
interested and selfish motives. The
territory to lie cut
,from Bradford
would make bat little - difference with
us, but the inhabitants of that un
fortunate district would be the great
sufferers, and therefore we fed it to
be a duty to them (to oppose the ,
measure, for the/reason that Prima
HERDIC is pushing it for his personal
aggrandizement atone, regardless of
the wishes or interests of the people
he seeks to coerse into his insignifi
cant county, for the sake of filching
from them their hard earned savings
ta fill his own pockets. If a large
majority of . the inlitibitauts of the
townships to be included in the pro
'posed county, are so earnest fpr the
'pasSage of Mr. HERDIC'S bill, why do
they not stly, so, either by their votes
or petitions,Y This county question
has heel?. an issue for the past three
years at4least, and each year the del
egates troin these townships have
supported - Ipr Representatives men
known to be hostile to the move
ment. The people are not for it,
and the author of these articles
'knows it: The only argument Mr.
llesmc has ever advanced, is the one
which Mr. PAIZEB said would have to
answered in the same way—mon-
ev.
The fact that. every newspaper in
all the counties to be affected by the
bill, except one Owned .by Mr. linu-
DIC, in Williamsport, oppose it,onght
to be satisfactory evidence to the
Advertiser that the people don't want
it.
DIVISION OF BRADFORD COUNTY.
A correspondent of the Elmira
Advertiser, writing from Athens, ex
plains the origin of the several let
ters which have appeared in that pa
per on the division question:
Enirosts ADvEivrina :—Your correspoir'ent
" w." of this place, has more impudence of the
brazen kind than is at all necessary for the sor
ry cause he alone in this section, represents. A
few (lave ago,. Williams, of Canton, was sent up
from Hatrisburg to work the rich vein of se
cessionism that W. had reported existed in
Athens and vicinity. Be dug faithfully for a
low days, but atter the hardest king of work,
he, succeeded in getting out one lamp and that
labeled " W." But W. was a lirst‘class
lawyer and so he war put on the job as a valu
able acquistion to the working forces of Peter
the Great in doing all in his power to further
the iniquity that the Williamsport adventurer
is tying to perpetrate upon the good old coun
ty of Bradford. In'the first place W. writes a
letter fur the AtivErrisEn advocating division—
hien in the same paper of tu-day's date he
speaks of the first as the "bomb-shell" that
waked up his drowsy faculties and q .ickened
ts'permption to see the beauty there is in
ilerd , c and Minnego& Then, being omni-res
ident, he writes a letter fromLatelitleld to the
Canton Sentinel saying that the citizens of that
town are in favor of division—when it is a no
torious fact, a fact which W. will not deny,that
not one man of any charatter in that place, is
in fivor of the measure.
Williams or " W." wrote also from' Ulster to
the stme paper, making 'statements equally
false. Thus it is that this job is worked—with
all sorts of deception, and all imaginable false
hoods. The masses of the people of Bradford
look with horror on the bare idea of a division
of our noble county. They cannot see anything
to be gained for themselves by the measure
but an increased burden of taxation and the
humiliation of seeing the; noble county of Brad
ford reduced tb a thud rate county. Disguise
it as they may, still the scheme is one born in
iniquity—au egg of the ambition of ono man,
the incubation of which can bo tostered only
by the grossest corruption and the use of
money. X;

ATAtNS, Pa., March_6, 1873.
: t in. The Harrisburg !Telegraph
waxes wroth over the charge made
by the REPORTER 'several weeks since,
that the chairman of the committee
on townships and' counties, Mr.
Franc, of Chester county, was cor
ruptly influenced in his action ,on
the Minnequa scheme, and calktup
on the Legislature to investigate the
matter. All right, Mr. BERGNER, if
the House takes your advice and
raises the committee, we will furnish
competent and reliable witnesses to
prove our assertion. If the Telegraph
would tell all its editor knows about
the " roosters " in the Legislature,
we presume there would be occasion
for several investigating committees.
We know that it ik3 very common for
the press to Make wholesale charges
of 'corruption!. against the Legisla
ture, and we deprecate and discohn
tenanee the practice as unfair and
cowardly ; but when a man is known
to be corrupt, we
the
it to be the
solemn duty of the press to 'expose
and denounce his corrupt practices.
Until this course is adopted and
faithfully adhered to, the innocent
-must suffer suspicion with the guilty.
If the Telegraph and other journals
at the State Capitol were more inde
pendent, and less influenced by the
hope of favors from they "roosters,"
oar legislature would cease to be
a by-word and reproach. The few
corrupt men like Mr. Pram would
never be elected the second time.
ler Judge 'WILLIAM Btrnia, of
Chester county, is spoken of as a
candidate for the Supreme Bench

in the Republican State Convention
last spring, and received a very com

•
Hume, tfins refers to the petition*
preimted to the Legidature in favor
of the new county. Everybody sc
.
grutinted with Manta and - his ob
sequions followers, know that they:
will bear watching :
Having !decided - that these citizens had bet
ter not become the - subjets of Peter Herdic,
their duty to reject the pe titions and the meas
ure is perfectly plain. rWe apprehend, too,
that it will require more than mere petitions to
convince the Legislators that the new county
is really wanted, and that it will benefit any
body besides Herdic and a fin! of his "swamp
angels." eta
But, as we hue sewested before, in an hon
est tindesear of titeitiWs of the Legislature to
arrive at the truth. it is not safe to take for
granted that thou petitions were signed by all
or even half of the persona whose names ap
pear upon them. It, is alien-known fact 014
the chief parties interested in the now coanty
scheme, are not the most Moral, rena:di and
serupulotte of cititens slid churchmen..' - Nind
what has weed through! their handl, with but
a probability of rwrsonal interest attsching, in
variably needs the best! proof of genuineness
known to the law. It will be remembered. by
our readers, that not long since we exposed a,
frAnd in the swipe of a lambeestatementorhich
purported to have been signed by certain
prominent Williamsport lumbermen. Although
wewithheld the names of tparties who em
phatically and indignantly r ep udiated the doc
ument which gulled the ereility of a number
of editors and others, it Was One the lea true
that those parties never tsigned the document
nor authorised it to be signed for them. Now
this statement was in the shape of a petition to
the Legislature to stay the devastation of tim
ber, and was gotten ;IC and circulated with
characteristic industry, by the same parties
who have gotten up the! petitions for the new
county. The f , rmer was fraudulently gotten
up for the purpose of indirectly affecting legis•
lotion, and may not the hitter have been man
ufactured largely to the same end. in the di
rect interests of the same parties?.lt is, to
our mind, the. most likely thing that could
have happened. And; with the experience
that former legislsturce,haye had with the ir
reputable "member from ldinnequa." it is
hardly possible that the present legislature
*lll unwittingly and credidcinitly receive his
representations as correct Withoutrequiring
the beet corroborative proof in the world.
" Whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise."
The only power that can pass the Mitineqiis
bill is money ; and we hope the parse which
leedi the friends of the•messure, in the Legis
lature, may-give out its last dollar, before the
greedy maws of the legislature asses, who
bray for that kind of food, may be hall satiated.
PRIZEB will do' his part toward

THE EVANS CABE.
The case of the Commonwealth
vs. GEO. 0. Evan was concluded in
Harrisburg last week. Thejary ren
dered a verdict in favor of the State
of $149,726 53.
Gov. GEM being (load, Der. Ers.us
was, principally, his own Witness in
the case, and hence the Common
wealth
,Vas unable to contradict any
thing he asserted about arrange
ments made at the time of his ap
pointment.
Mr. EVANS seemed to be well satis
fied with the •verdict, since, under
the decision of the court, it is under
stood that it is only a common debt.
It is believed that the rise will be
carried to the Supreme Court by the
State authorities.
Thia settles one of the numerous
slanders against Gen. H.Airrasitrr It
will be remembered that the opposi
tion, during' the campaign last fall,
charged that , the case would never ,
be pressed •to trial, for the reason
that litirrnaarr was !implicated with
EVANS. This, with the other false
hoods uttevt , d against the Governor,
is emphatically disproved by his offi
cial condtici.
WHAT OUTSIDERS THINK OEIT.
The Harrisburg , correspondent of
the Chambersbarg. Repository ;says
concerning the new county project
of the "Proprietor of 31innequa" :
The better p n.tioa of the House were sur
prised the other day by the report that the
committee on counties and townships bad
agreed to a bill creating a new county. called
Minnequa, out of Vega,. Bradford, Sullivan
and 14 coming in the north-eastern part of the
State. This county is to be created for the
especial benefit of the notorious Peter. Herdic.
who is on hand with hie cash, ready to push
his pet scheme throngh. By tho bill a piece IS
cut from each of th so counties, making sad
havoc with their symmetry; but making a
beautitul•and square county, to please Peter
and no one else. The people in the counties
above alluded tore opposed to this,and their
representatives are with their constituents
against this glaring outrage. Time will alone
tell tsbether Herdic aid his corrupt friends
are strong enough to accomplish their purpos
es. I watch this spicy piece of legislation
and keep you informed. •
The BedfoF.d Liquzrer remarks on
he lichEme
" Peter Herdic, of Williamsport, is said to
have a neat job set up at Harrisburg. It is
neither more nor less than a new amity to be
erected with Idinuequa ,as the county seat.
lillonequit was built for a watering place a few
years ago, based on a slpggish, almost stag
nant spring, tainted with sulpher in a dry
time, and a pet bear, housed in a molasses
hogshead with tie head knocked out. Of a
necessity the thing was a failure, - and now it is
to be made to pay by making a new county for
the purpose of making Miunequa the county
seat. Peter is clever at devices to make things
pay, but ! whether be can worry this through
remains to be seen, as there seems to be con
siderable objection made to creating a new
county in order to bolster up the bad invest
ment of-a single individual." •
SCHVYLLU COLFAX.
Ex-Vice President COLFAX arrived
at his home in South-Bend, Ind., on
Saturday last and was received by a
large concourse of people with bands
of music. A speech of welcome was
delivered by the Mayor of the city.
Mr. Cows replied in an address of
eansiderabie length in which he re
viewed the Credit Mobilier scandal,
and closed by reading a letter from
Mr. DILON, castutr of the Ser
geant-at-Arms, in which this gentle
man says, upon referring to the
books and refreshing his memory he
is under the strong impression that
he paid all the cheeks with initials
on them to OAKES Axes himself, and
closes his letter to Comex bye con
gratnlatfng him upon his triumphal
vindication from a well arranged plot
to injure him "in the estimation of
the public.

If Mr. Coma was gniltr of any
wrong or impropriety in connection
with the. Credit Mobilier affair, it
must be apparent to every unpreju
diced, candid man, that his action
was not of a criminal character, and
that. the .disposition manifested by
certain newspapers to hold him up
to public scein -and contempt, is
cowardly and malicious. A man's
standing among his neighbois is the
very best ctiterhin by which to judge

The hypocracy of the_ Colonel

about. the roosters in the legis

that his own legislatiVe career was

tered into a corrupt conspiracy with
Pima HERDIC to secure a division of
this county. Mr. Maw -is as far

THE NEW COUNTY OP.nueNr.qua.
The last Northern Tier Gazette,pub
lished at Troy, gives the following
truthful, concise and clear statement
of the sentiment of this county on
the division question, It it{ an effect
ual rejoinder to the allegation of
Hamm and his friends that the peo
ple of the western part of the county,
desire a division :
The Stale Journal of the 26th ult.
contains an elaborate article under
this captian. Although published
as an editorial, its 'unblushing impu
dence ofr-assertion—ita canning ad
mixture of a little truth with mach
falsehood„, and its' cool appropriation
of the reasons in 1841 for creating a
new county of fifteen townships from
Bradford and','lloga, as arguments
in favor of attaching three towns and
a fraction to the wild-cat region of
Sullivan and Lycoming in 1873, in
dicate its.author as certainly as his
disheveled locks and portly form
would point out Lawyer Williams in
the streets of Canton. Professing to
give a dispassionate statement of
facts, he puts forward a specious ar
gument, written for,mbney in the
interest of Peter Herdic . : Published
as it has been at the State Capital, it
is perhaps entitled to a somewhat
detailed consideration. It is true
that in 1841 an effort was made to.
Create the new county of Penn.. It
is not true that anybody ever dream
ed of taking any part of Sullivan and
Lycoming for the purposi of a coun
ty until the present speculation was
conceived, and it became necessary
to have territory without population,
in order to evade the constitution.
For 'introducing, this bill into the
Legislature, his own party made
Stephen Pierce a "yearling."
Some years later another attempt
at division was made and failed.
During the past twenty years the
sleep of death has veiled the divis
ion scheme. No candidate has been,
nominated or elected on-that: ques
tion, until Major Dartt was elected
against it. No effort daring all . this
time has been put forth towards di
Tiding Bradford county. Yet we are
told that for thirty-five years, our
people have " struggled with great
earnestness and warmth to create a
new county" 'and been " beaten
back," and that this mountain of la
bor has brought forth Minnequa--
Parfuriunt mantes, naseetur.ridicidus

mar A Harrisburg letter says :
"Your broadside on PRIEER made a
fluttering among HERDIC'S poultry."
We give the " roosters" notice that
we shall continue to expose their
corrupt practices, " regardless of de- .
nunciation." Men who secure seats
in the Legislature for the purpose of
selling their votes deserve to be ex- .
posed, and the press fails in its duty,
to the public when it fails to hold
them up to' the execration of their
constiOients:

an act of simple justice that Myer,
Mitchell, Jones,- (of Susquehanna),
Bates, of Crawford, and Morris, of
Westmoreland, all stood equally firm
in the committee on the division
question. They are all square men,
neither tempted by the waters nor
the greenbacks of the Minnequa
chief. E3WLT.
f!!~• The preachers of the Gospel
in Kansas have taken- the Ponxitor-
YOWL bribery case in hand, and are
making good use of it in pointing
moral and a warning to their congre
gations. We notice that some of
these ministers are handling the two
principals without gloves, and if the
reports of some of the sermons are
an index to popular feeling, then it is
only too apparent that To= is looked
upon with about as little favor as
Pommam, in Kansas. The Rev. Dr.
Raw, of Lawrence, Kansas, recently,
after giving his opinion of Senator
Poltraor in very plain and emphatic
Saxon, thus ref4red to Yoax's con.
duct in going to Poxtao: and prOm
sing to vote for hi M.
This Prmeise was a deliberate lie—
s promise to do what he did not in
tend to do. It will not hPlp the
matter to say that when he promised
to vote for Mr. Pawnor, Colonel
Yost meant that he would vote for
him to w) to the penitentiary. He
knew that Mr. Possum understood
him to make a bona fide promise to
vote for his return to the Senate, and
he took the money on that condition
In making that promise he told a lie.
It is vain) to say that motive was good;
that cannot justify the lie. On the
same principle, Mr. Pow :sofa friends
who used bribery to. ware I& oioe;1
don might joist* their worse.

TORONTO, Chit., c 111=-4
special dispata(froni Pod Garry,
Manitoba, to Aii Gk says: that
tense excitement prevails in 'Winne
peg, owing to the fact that it was
sought to pass a bill through the
legislature which would have let the
Ribbon Say Company "and other
landed proprietors of the pay
ment of one-third the usual taxation
on their lands.
An indignation ; meeting was held,
and a committee appointed to plead
at the' bar of the Howe, 'Whither
they were followed by four hundred
people. The bill was ultimately
thrown out.
On account of the tyrabical ruling
sof the Speaker, be was drag gedfrom fro
his house at midnight and adminis
tered a coat of tar. The government
hs,s offered one thonsand dollars
ward for the conviction of the perpe
trators. Fearing a further breach
of the peace, a military guard bas
been placed over the Parliament,
House.
TMr , :
Upon the whOle (says the North
American) considering solely the im
portance of the public business in
troduced, and the very grave results
that must follow legislation, the bit
ter and desperate 'animus of the de
feated opposition and the scandal
they imcceeded in foisting into the
place of business, we apprehend that
when the effects of the short session
which closed on Tuesday last are
seen, the country will award it no
mean or ordinary praise. It did not
attain perfection. It did not, proba
bly, all that it might have done wise
ly—nor left all undone that shonld
haVe been so treated. There were
Liberals and Democrats, and too
many of both in ite constitution to
peimit a close approach to the abso
lute. - But it did all that bad to be
done; and, not less meritorious, it
gave the good-bye to a whole firma
ment of schemes and plots, and
plans designed for partisan, for per
tumid, for ideal and limited ends,
without reference to the welfare of
the country—unless to leech it. This
negative action cannot have its mer
its overestimated.
In a day when legislation is ex
pected to cure everything, from the
toothache to schism ; and to benefit
everybody, so that be can estimate
his advantage to the cent instantly ;
and when the whole pack are hunger
scented for plunders that will sup-
Port them, the Forty-second Con
gress dissolved with a record whose
wise mean between action and ioac-
tion will benefit the nation in every
way, and' so adjust the work of its
successor - that great good_ can be
readily made greater, and the first
century of national being rounded
into' a larger proniise and more
crescent future. The true ends of
legislation, the true apportionment
of action and inaction, have beeri
considered with rare judgment and
observed with rare resolution.
SAVING $5,000,000.
A Washington dispatch says the
opinion-of the Supreme Court of the
United Statis in the Philadelphia
and Reading railroad case, snstain
lit the right of the government to,
tax railroad dividends, will save the.
government nearly $5,000,000: There
are now On file in the Internal Reve
nue Bureau about three hundred
cases for a refund of the tax on divi
dends, the same question being in
volved as was embraced in the case
just decided by the court, which was
to the effect- that the dividends of the
road were taxable. Besides these
three hundred applicatioias on file,
the law office of the bureau has in ,
formation that agents hal- prepared
a very lirge number of similar ap
plications, which were to be present
ed had the court decided that the
dividend tax was illegal.
RESFLT OF No LICENSE. -SOlllO3 ears
ago, HOWELL Purr was a member of
the Legislature, he obtained the pas
sage of an act prohibiting license in
the borough and township of Spring,
Crawford county. The Judges and
attorneys of that county now unite in
published testimony that during the
twelve years of no license in that
place, containing a population of
3,000, not a single criminal charge
has been brought to the court of
Crawford county.
Who will say .that this is not a
powerful argument in behalf of no
license every where?' Let there be a
general trial.
agi.. The British- estimate of the
gain to the United States from the
award by the Emperor of Germany
on the San Juan Boundary 1 e
ought to gratify us. This award
'las only taken from us," an English
journal says, "sixty three thousand
square miles of territory - , and gold
regions rich enough to. sot any num
ber of limited companies afloat."
The Table to the United States of
this acquisition is estimated by tho
same authority as at least twenty
millions sterling.
se. Mr. 341:11 has introduced a
bill in the House for the incorpora.:
Con of the Towanda and Troy nar
row-page 11. R. Co., and will, with
out doubt, secure its passage through
both Houses. The incorporators
named in the bill are among our
most energetic and subitantial busi
ness men, and will undoubtedly
" push things " as soon as the com
pany is organized.
MIL.The biggest joke of the
is Prrza's proposition 'to build": a
street railway from lifmnequa to Can
ton. He has had a bill introduced
in the Legislature to incorporate the
company. A little too thin, Prim
IS. Secretary Boum:L replies to
an inquiry that it is not his intention
to inflate the currency by permanent
ly, keeping out any part of the $44,
000,00 J, of legal tenders in reserve.
He believes, bowever, D9twitlifitand
ing the Ways and Means Committee,
that he has the right . to Woo them
Irbetievor he deems lb proper.

ADDRESS OF VICE PRESIDENT CaLFAX.
Senators4-The :time fixed by the
Constitution for the dissolution of
the Forty-A=lnd COngress has ar
rived, and with a few parting words
I shill resitn.thii - to tbo hon
ored son of Massachusetts who his
been closet' by,tbe people as ng
successor. !Adnainistrat ! unas terint-
mite, and Clongressei expire as ; the
years pass by, but the nation lives
and grows and prospers, to be served
in .the future by those . equally faith
ful to its interests, and equally proud
of,its growing influence among the
nations of tLe earth.
To be culled by the representatives
of the people and rafterwis by the
people themselves to the responsible
duty of presiding successively over
the two Houses' of Congress for the
past ten years, from the era of war•
through the era of reconstruction to
the era of peace, more than fills the
measure of an houqrable ambition.
Looking back over these ten exciting
sears I can claim not that I have
committed no act which has proved
the confidence misplaced that called
me 'to this position, 'but alto that 1
hare striven in its official - duties to
administer the parliamentary law
with the same impartiartiality width
which the upright judge upon the
bench decides questions of life
and liberty.
To faithfully protect the rights
of the minority, as well as.to uphold
the rights of the majority in the
advancement of the public business,
to retuhin calm and unmoved amid
the excitements of debate, to tetepir
and restrain asperitie,-, and to guard
against personal antagonisms, to per
form acceptably the complex and of
ten perplexing duties of the •Chair
without partisan biasi, has been my
constant endeavor. It is gratifying,
therefore, that of theomany hundreds
of decisions made by ‘me, often on
the instant, none have been reversed,
and scarce any seriously questioned.
• How much I owe to the uniform
kindness and support of the members
over whom I have presided is diffi
cult to express in- words. It has
been - bounded by: no party lines and
controlled l b ) - no political affiliations,
and I rejoice that I have been able to
attest my appreciation of this sup;
port while zealously .defending priu
ciples before the people. This de
fense
'has never been coupled with
personal assaults on any of the enii
nent public men with I have
differed. No aspeisie:,s. (AI their
character have dish moral
'tongue, No epithets or invective
have fallen from my lips,
But,the clock 'admonishes me that
the- Forty-second Congress has
already passed into history, and, hap
py lives for your country, and happy
lives for yourselves, and thanking
you for- the resolution spread on
your journal; and invoking the favor
'of Him who holds the destinies of
nations and of men in the hollow of
His hand, I an; ready . to administer,
the oath of office to flea President
elect, whom I nowt introduce to yen.
Mr. Wilson, standing at_ the Secre
tary'idesk, addresied the senate as
follows:. •
VICE PEESIDEN - r WILSON ' S ADDRFSS
Senators—ln assuming the position
assigned me the voice of the na
tion, I am not I trust, unmindful of
the obligations it imposes. A servico
here somewhat. prolonged, covering a
period crowded with great events,
and an association here with two
hundred and thirty, Senators,.manv

.ed experience, have iinpress:_ti upon
cue exalted ideas of the responsibd
ities resting upon the occupant. of
this chair,' under the .rules of the
Senate, parliamentary. law, and the
Constitution.
Iu passing, then, from the seat
I have held for more than eighteen
years, to this ehair,l trust I compre
hend something of its just require
ments—something, too, of the tone
and.temper of the Senate. • In pre
siding over your deliberations I shag

and encouragement, that forbearance
and indulgence which ram sure I
shall often require as your presiding
officer.
COMMODORE VANDERBILT AND GREF.-
LEY'S D.tuenrEss. , --:It has been gener
ally known in political circles for sev
eral years "that HORACE GREVLEY
en
dorsed a note of fifteen thousand dol
lars for COMMODORE VANDERBILT'S mis
erable son, CORNELIUS, and had it to
pity. Young COR.VELIUS was never
h a cent of his own and was
never able in the life time of Grimm
to make him good. Bence the claim
has been spoken of since his death in
connection with his assets as being
probably worthless. Bat on Satur
day last the Commodore, unwittingly
probably, said that IBIr. Gavrir.vr's
daughters -should not' suffer for the
delinquency of his profligate boy, and
N;-ithotit any intimation to or from
any person' sent the daughters , his
check for $lO,OOO, with a written
leave to them whenever they were
out of money to call on him for moil),
This was an exhibittun of sympathy
and goodness on the tart the Com
modoie which the most of those who
know him did not suppose he pos
sessed.
Id. Hon. WIL HOPKINS, a member
of the S ate Constituttonal Conven
tion, died on WeAnesday, at Pitts
burg. Mr. HOPKINS was twill in 1804.
He was a member of the State Legu3-
lature from 1834 to 1840, Cahat Com
misioner from 1853 to 1855, and
member of the State Senate from
1864 to 1866. - For - many years he
was an active leader of tue.Demoera
cy in this State. Resolutions of re
spect to his . memory were adopted in
the Constitutional Convention, and
Judge LAWRENCE ' of Washington
county, paid an eloquent tribute to
his personal attributgs. A commit
tee attended the funeral of the de
ceased delegate, who was a good
man, and possessed in a large degree
of the affeCtioiie of his asexiates.:
